Tucked away in the heart of metropolitan Memphis, Lichterman Nature Center brings nature to life with exciting exhibits, native wildflowers and trees, and a tradition of excellence in environmental education for the public and school groups. Set in the midst of 65 acres of lakes, meadow, and forest, Lichterman is an urban wildlife oasis and home to a wide variety of plants, birds, reptiles, and more.
If you enjoy volunteering outdoors, learning about native plants and animals, and helping educate the public about wildlife, then you should volunteer at the Lichterman Nature Center for our Clean-Up/ Fix Up Saturday. Volunteers need to be 16 years and over.
Volunteers will help with trail maintenance, cleaning up the Children's Discovery Forest, assist in the greenhouse and plant propagation center, help maintain learning outdoor spaces in the Backyard Wildlife Center, and more.
Please contact Janie Best Paraham if have any questions or to have your name added to the volunteer list at janie.paraham@memphistn.gov or 901.636.2438.
